Grading & Drainage
project type: course work
date: 2019 instructor: Dave Zielnicki |
This project began with an imagined landscape and set program of built elements including townhouses, sports courts, roads, bridges, pedestrian paths and an amphitheater. Spot elevations were interpolated from the initial site and land was graded to meet the programmatic and ecological needs of the space. The work incorporates swales and rain gardens to create a space that is accessible and sustainable.

This project is a combination of technical and experiential design work. Through strategies of grading the land and directing drainage, the site becomes a place for community, water and nature to work together. This work is represented through a technical grading plan and laser cut models.
